Hypoallergenic jewelry is jewelry made from pure metals such as: Platinum, 18K Gold, Titanium, Copper, Tungsten, Stainless Steel and 925 Sterling Silver.

Nickel is a common metal that is combined in alloys to save money and create a more flexible material for jewelry design. However, it is also the main cause of allergies among the population.

Pure metals such as sterling silver (92.5% silver) generally do not contain nickel and are therefore less likely to cause an allergic reaction. However, it is important to remember that there may be rare cases of sensitivity to pure metals.

It is possible to turn an allergic piece of jewelry into a hypoallergenic piece of jewelry in two ways:

1. Rhodium plating – a professional process that coats the jewelry with a safe layer of rhodium, making it both hypoallergenic and shinier and more durable.
2. Coating with clear nail polish – Coating clear nail polish on the jewelry is a temporary home solution of coating the jewelry with a layer of nail polish, which prevents direct contact with the skin and thus creates a type of barrier between the item and sensitive skin.
